A group of organs that work together to do a certain job make up an
What is organ system

What do cells in every protist have?
What is a nucleus

How would you design an experiment to test if a classification key designed for all living things works?
Test the key with several known organisms from each kingdom to see if the key leads to the right group

Why is it important for us to know that a blade of grass is more like bamboo than it is like moss?
It is important to know how to classify plants so we can understand the plant better and grow the plants successfully.

A single celled organism without a nucleus is called a
What is bacterium

An organism that absorbs food from decaying organisms is a
What is fungus

What do plants cells have that animal cells do not?
What is Chloropast
200
Would a plant cell be able to survive without chloroplasts? What would happen if the chloroplasts were removed from the cell?
No, the plant cell would not be able to make its own food without the chloroplasts.

You hypothesize that a particular organism belongs to the fungus kingdom. Describe how you would test your hypothesis.
I would use a classification key to find the group where the organism belongs.

Similar cells that have the same job or function come together to make a
What is tissue

A microscopic organism that has a nucleus surrounded by a thin membrane is called a
What is protist

The largest subdivision of living things
What is a kingdom

You discover an organism and you think that it belongs to the Phylum Porifera. Write a hypothesis for an experiment to test this idea.
If organism X belongs to the phylum porifera, then it will have a body like a hollow tube.
400
Plants that have tissue through which water and food move are
What is vascular
400
Tissues of different kinds come together to make an
What is organ
400
The two largest groups in the plant kingdom are
What is vascular and non vascular plants

Describe the difference between tissue, organs, and organ systems.
A tissue is made of similar cells that do the same thing. Different tissues come together to make an organ. Organ systems are groups of organs that work together to do a job.

The science of finding patterns among living things is called
What is classification

An animal that has a backbone is called a

The smallest unit of an organism that is capable of life is called
What is a cell

How are plant and animal cells alike? How are they different?
Plant and naimal cells have cell membranes, nucleus, mitochondrion, and vacuole. Plant cells differ from animal cells because plant cells have chloroplasts and cell walls.
